Abstract
This paper discusses the importance of industry-developed safety standards and points up the need for such voluntary standards to minimize the necessity for government-imposed requirements. The aims and activities of the Construction Industry Manufacturers Association are explained, particularly as they apply to the encouragement of the development of voluntary standards.
The importance of communicating to the machine operator the great need for safe operation is stressed.
